Abstract
An electromagnetic assembly, for example for a relay, has a magnetic core surrounded by an electrical coil, and an armature closing the magnetic circuit of the electromagnetic assembly. The magnetic core is of the split pole type having a first pole and a second pole, the former being surrounded by a shading ring to produce a phase shift in the magnetic flux in the region of the poles when the electrical coil is energized. A step is provided in the first pole between the shading ring and the armature so that the flux density, and thus the magnetic force, between the first pole and the armature is increased.
Claims8
An electromagnetic assembly comprising:
- an electrical coil having a magnetic core, the magnetic core having at least first and second poles, each pole having an end face;
- a shading ring surrounding the first pole to produce a phase shift in the magnetic flux in the region of said poles when the electrical coil is energized;
- an armature disposed opposite to said end face of said at least first and second poles;
- a yoke forming a magnetic circuit including the electrical coil and the armature of the magnetic assembly;
- the end face of the first pole facing the armature having an upper face and a lower face to increase the flux density between the first pole and the armature when the electrical coil is energized;
- and
- a step between the upper face and the lower face, the lower face being located along a corner of the end face of the first pole.
A magnetic core for an electrical coil, the core comprising at least first and second poles and means for supporting a shading ring surrounding the first pole, an end face of the first pole including an upper face and a lower face, a step between the upper face and the lower face, the lower face being located along an outside corner of the end face of the first pole.
